I am looking at Romans 8:23, where is says, "the redemption of our body." The resource that I have (Zodhiates The Complete WordStudy New Testament) shows the word "our" as a personal pronoun rather than a possessive pronoun, and it shows the word "body" as a noun with a definite article. With that in mind, why then was it translated as "our body" rather than something like "us, the body" or "we, the body"? Would "us, the body" be a valid translation from the Greek? Please keep the answer fairly simple, as I'm not a Greek scholar. Thank you very much.
